Indeed, Bale, 40, and his wife recently stepped out together to support Bale's film at the 86th Academy Awards on Sunday, March 2. The Best Actor nominee walked the red carpet with the expectant mother, who attempted to hide her baby bump in a gorgeous black gown.

The actor and his wife tied the knot in January 2000. They are already parents to an 8-year-old daughter, whom they welcomed in March 2005.

"The last few years of my life have been spent just watching animation -- for my daughter -- and getting a kick out of that," the Dark Knight Rises actor gushed to Esquire in 2010 about fatherhood. "I love anything that she likes. If she's getting a kick out of it, I love it. I find myself tearing up at the most ridiculous things now, sitting next to my daughter while she's watching a movie."
